    Looking for better payload truck (getting rid of Ram Rebel)

    Even though I’m semi retired I’m only 40 and have some “young” years left in me. Not looking for a retirement rig. I have plenty of sub freezing nights in a rooftop tent. I have a travel trailer and motor home as well so I’m very familiar with that style of “camping”. Just trying to find a...

    Looking for better payload truck (getting rid of Ram Rebel)

    After going down a rabbit hole I’m starting to lean this way. I’m one of those certified YouTube mechanics that can wrench a bit. Then again I think most people in this group are “certified” too as it comes with the territory. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Looking for better payload truck (getting rid of Ram Rebel)

    Not going to do double duty as a commuter. Currently semi retired and I have an XJ if I needed to commute. Really want to get a bigger truck for bigger truck stuff and having the camper on back a couple months out of the year. Ocasional road trip pulling my travel trailer and some summer forest...

    Looking for better payload truck (getting rid of Ram Rebel)

    Not trying to fit a family a five in the camper. Will mainly use it during hunting season so on average 2 adults. As far as 4 season camper the possibilities are endless but not looking for a heavy “Elkhart” plastic POS. Maybe a fiberglass shelled slide in, Scout, or an Alaskan pop up. Only...

    Looking for better payload truck (getting rid of Ram Rebel)

    There has been many a year I have taken my gun for a cold walk in the woods. It does make “packing out” the carcass of your failures and broken dreams a lot lighter and easier. No need for a cooler then that’s for sure! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Looking for better payload truck (getting rid of Ram Rebel)

    A cooler would fit in the backseat or on the floor of the camper. Or….. a hitch basket as demonstrated! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Looking for better payload truck (getting rid of Ram Rebel)

    Usually I hike in and pack out quarters depending on what type of animal. So the short answer is chevrolegs and a backpack. After hiking out I put the quarters in a cooler. I do have a Polaris ace I use depending on where I go. Considering getting rid of the Ace and getting a TJ. Not sure if...

    Looking for better payload truck (getting rid of Ram Rebel)

    The camper would be used mainly for hunting season with on average 2 people. Luckily my family is on the smaller scale weight wise. I’m not trying to fit my whole family in the camper so that’s why I was thinking an Alaskan. Mainly need to tow with some occasional overloading and need to fit 5...

    Looking for better payload truck (getting rid of Ram Rebel)

    Looking for a slide in camper. Just well insulated one but on the lighter side like a fiberglass slide in. Not looking for a dually so would probably get a smaller big foot or maybe an Alaskan Camper. The Rebel tows our travel trailer fine. Max payload is around 1500 pounds and the rear end sags...

    Looking for better payload truck (getting rid of Ram Rebel)

    Currently have a 2019 Ram Rebel that’s my daily and overland vehicle. I love everything about it except the payload numbers. I’m looking to get rid of it and get an older HD truck. Not sure if I want to get a gasser or a diesel but I would like a truck with a better payload than my Rebel. My...
